Culture and Mourning: Free Community Event

Culture and Mourning: Free Community Event

Join us for a free lunch and community event to explore the rich Islamic traditions surrounding end-of-life and grief rituals. We’ll cover topics such as the Islamic beliefs about death and the afterlife, including the soul’s journey, the Day of Judgment, and the concepts of Heaven and Hell. The session will also delve into funeral rites, mourning practices, and prayers for the deceased, as well as coping with grief through faith, family, and community support. Additionally, we’ll compare Islamic views with those of other major religions and provide an open floor for questions and discussion. This event aims to foster understanding and support within our community.
